"How nice it has been learning with Dataquest"
Since I decided to change my career heading to be a data scientist, I realized how important is having a constant learning routine. Therefore, at least once a week I spend some hours getting new knowledge. Among several platforms that I have been using... Read More

"The program is perfect for anyone interested in learning programming for applications to data science."
I have been using DataQuest for only a couple of months and, in that time, it has been nothing short of wonderful. I am on the Data Scientist path and learning with Python. Here is why the program is amazing:
- The missions are streamlined and not bogged... Read More
The service is perfect in every way!

"Thoroughly explained, well organized."
Pros:
- Good introduction to beginners, does not go too in depth into each topic, just enough for further self study.
- Links to documentation are convenient.
- Explanation is layman, convenient to go back and re-read compared to video lessons
- Interface... Read More
Cons:
- Programming in browser will not generate as much warnings as in local environment using Jupyter notebook, thus not maximizing learning
- Forums for free missions have limited answers to questions
- Usually only 1 way of doing things/ 1 library function introduced at each step in the missions (not the guided projects though)
JOB SUPPORT 3 star because have not experienced it yet.
Conclusion: Just try it for 10 minutes (it's easy to set up) and see if it fits your mode of learning.

"The only real comprehensive course out there"
I have tried lots and lots of MOOCs in the fields of data science and machine learning. Guys trust me. If you really want to learn the domain, go for dataquest.io! Most of the courses are scratching the surface only by discussing high-level theory. Even... Read More

"All-encompassing data science resource"
DataQuest is the best platform I have come across for learning data science. The biggest selling point for me was the wide range of topics available, as evidenced by the three paths available: data scientist, data scientist, engineer and analyst. This... Read More
The platform is a joy to use, and I have not encountered any major bugs whatsoever. It is also constantly updated, and very intuitive to use. For those of you on the fence, give it a try. With this platform, the only obstacle to mastering data science is how much time you have to learn it!

"Solid place to learn, practice, and present data science"
Pros
Best bang for your buck. Each course offers a certificate along with the overall course path: data engineer, data analyst, and data scientist.
Gives a course on how to use Kaggle with background in the mathematics of data science.
All the courses are... Read More
The help during learning how to code is not penalized and positive reinforcement is given throughout the learning path.
Cons
Some errors in the code, but very small. Also there are some projects that do not have solutions.
This might matter to some, but, I found it as a pro, no videos.
Job Support
They have a job support for the highest form of membership. I gave them 3 starts, since I did not attend the highest form of membership but the premium program alone offers a great portfolio alone. People that are already familiar with job hunting will thrive in finding a data science job without the extra support.
Overall
Great course. If I only had to chose 1 site to learn data science, then it would be this site. I like to use their competitors as supplementary material. I find Dataquest's lessons to be clear in describing concepts into practice.
